Source Microorganism
| Summary | The Aspergillus niger glucoamylase helps to convert most starch into glucose, and finds wide applications in starch sugar processing, alcohol fermentation, distilling, rice wine, vinegar, brewing, organic acid and antibiotics fermentation. |
| Description | Glucoamylase is produced by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus niger followed by purification and formulation. The product is used in starch sugar processing, alcohol fermentation, distilling, rice wine, vinegar, brewing, organic acid and antibiotics fermentation. |
| Mechanism | Glucoamylase breaks downα-1,4-glycosidic bond of starch from non-reducing end to produce glucose and can also hydrolyze α-1,6 glycosidic bond slowly. At the branch of α-1,6 bond, it splits off α-1.6 bonds first then α-1.4 bonds. Therefore, it can successively liberate glucose unit of amylose from the non-reducing end to produce glucose. |
| Advantages |
Efficient saccharification of starch into glucose Maximize starch conversion and ethanol alcohol or other fermentation yield |
| Application | For maximal glucose yield from starch and high fermentation yield |
| Application Area |
Ethanol Brewing Fruit and vegetable processing Wine enzymes Tobacco applications Starch sugar Portable alcohol |
| Application Recommendation |
Alcohol and ethanol industry: The recommended dosage is 0.6-1.2 L per ton of total raw materials. Added at the beginning of saccharification after pH adjustment, then saccharifying at 60°C and pH 4.0-4.5 for 30-60 minutes. The dosage has to be optimized based on each application, the raw material specifications, product expectation and processing parameters. It is better to begin the test with the convenient volume. |
